Members of the medical staff of
the Norwalk hospital wvre not par-
ticularly pleased today bet-nun: the
directors of the hospital full-.11 to
take any action upon in" :‘Lllrf's re-
'quest for the rcsignntiu: 1"? the su-
perintendent of the 21.!12‘1utlo.1_ Miss
Mary H. Bodine. Tiny lu-lievo
their original petition should have
been investigated instead of holding
of action on the request for the re-
signation and asking for written
charges. In speaking of» the hosptul
management today one physician
said.
' “Do you know that there is no
provision in either the cot-utution
or the by-lnws of the Norwalk h
pital association for a. general In
ager? And yet. C. M. Strayer the
general manager. has assumed a
good deal of authority and at the
felnt meeting of the hospital medical
staff and the directors. took up most
of the time at the meeting..
“The physicians have appeared
before the Board of Directors on
two occasions asking for the resigns.
tion of Miss Bodlne. On the first
occasion there was no quorum of
directors. On the second occasion
the floor had time to u hear . only
three or four physicians. Edough
evidence has been presented to have
action taken on our request for
the resignation of the superintend-
cut.
"Why. one physician was treated
so diecourteoualy at the hospital
that he has never sent another case
to the institution. The physicians
feel they have an interest in the
hospital: they contributed in its
building and in its support. They
do their best by serving it. The
superintendent :and general' man-
ager are hired servants: they are
not residents of the community. If
we cah't get harmony with thin they
should go. W’e don't have to stand
for strangers coming in here and
dictating the policy of the hospital.
“If the hospital directors want
us at any time they know where to
find us. “‘e have given two ove-
nlngs up to this matter."
Another physician who occupies
anhigh position in the community
said: -
“The superintendent is a good ex-
ecutivo, but not for a. hospital. She
has marked ability in many ways.
but is not suitable for the hospital."
The physicians on the hospital
staff are hard working. They have
much to do. They may get behind
with their .records, butthey always
do bring them up to (fife when they
find time. In the large hospitals.
there are clerks who take care of
this phasb of the work.
"What. we need at the hospital is
a man who will take care of the
business side of the institution. \Ve
need a. Woman to run the house—
keeping end of the hospital and per-
sonally train the nurses.
"Every physician on the hospital
staff is behind the movement asking
for the :gsignation of the superin-
tendent of the hospital. We would
force it by building a private hos-
pital or going on a strike. But we
don't want to do this.
"What .tbo hospital directors
should do is to bring in an outsider,
some impartial person. to investigate
conditions."
Still another p ysiclan told of a
case for the isola on word at the
hospital. It appears that the phy-
sician wanted a patient isolated. He
{oumf that the isolation room was
being used as a store room and that
repairs bad to be made to the heat-
ing system before the room could
be used.
